Princess Elara Lionheart
After driving the Draco family out of his city borders, Barry drove back into Liberty city in silence.When he pulled into the underground parking lot of his penthouse building, he cut the engine and stepped out without a second glance.He tossed the keys casually to the nearest valet.“Park it,” he said.The valet caught them instantly, nodding with respect as Barry walked past him.He entered the elevator alone. The doors slid shut, sealing him as the numbers climbed. His reflection stared back at him from the mirrored walls. Barry could barely recognize himself."Veronica was right," he muttered, feeling his face with his hands. "I haven't aged a bit."Now that he had awakened Sebastian's gift, he felt powerful than the average human.His senses were heightened, his reaction time was insane and he could outrun a speeding bullet. In that short fight with Draven, Barry's entire body had evolved rapidly. He even possess a special ability which Sebastian calls the TIME SNAP. The TI
A true Alpha
Draven was suspended in the air, one foot forward, claws of fire half-formed around his fists. Behind him, the members of the Draco family were frozen as well—their mouths open mid-chant.Time has stopped.Barry exhaled slowly.He reached into his pocket and drew out a strange black ring with an obsidian gem set at it's center. Barry slipped it onto his finger and clenched his hand into a fist.Then he moved, closing the distance until he stood directly in front of Draven. They were so close their foreheads were almost touching.Draven remained frozen in the air, his burning eyes locked on Barry’s indifferent gaze.Barry lowered his stance. His body coiled like a spring, spine tightening and muscles compressingEvery ounce of power he could muster gathered around his fist. The obsidian gem in the ring flared with a deep purple light.Time resumed slowly, unfreezing Draven and the Draco family. Draven’s flaming fist was inches from Barry’s face.But Barry struck first.His fist moved
The awakening
Draven took off his shirt and slowly spread his arms.Behind him, the members of the Draco family formed a semi-circle, sinking to their knees on the asphalt.Their heads bowed, palms pressed to the ground as they began to chant in a low, ancient tongue that made the air vibrate.Draven inhaled deeply, drawing in their faith. When he turned to face Barry again, his eyes burned faintly like embers.Barry stood several meters away—well within fighting distance.He didn't assume any fighting stance. His posture was careless. His eyelids were lowered, and his expression was empty, as if his mind were elsewhere entirely.Draven sneered inwardly."This man is a madman," he thought. "Leaving himself wide open like this? I’ll roast him to a crisp and be done with it."Draven’s feet shifted, and he began to move.His body flowed into a strange, circular dance. His arms cut through the air like blades as heat gathered around him. Flames coiled up his limbs, warping the air.With a sharp thrust
The Draco family
Three days later, as the first light of dawn tinged the sky over Liberty City, the Draco Family arrived.They did not come in tanks or with marching legions. They appeared at the main highway leading into the city, a long stretch of empty land separating them from the borders.They wore modern, dark clothing, but something about their presence felt powerful and ancient. The leader, a man who appeared to be in his robust middle-age with salt-and-pepper hair and sharp, hawk-like features, took a step forward. He raised one hand, palm out, towards the empty air ahead. His hand stopped as if pressing against solid glass. A faint, golden ripple spread out from the point of contact, revealing a massive, invisible dome-like barrier that encased the entire skyline of Liberty City.The man's eyes narrowed. He pushed harder, but the barrier didn’t yield. “This is a strong barrier,” he whispered under his breath. “Not even bombs could penetrate it.”He stepped back and sniffed the air, his e
The three letters
The silence that followed was thick enough to choke on. Veronica stared at the letter in Barry’s hand as if it were a venomous snake.Her voice broke the silence. “Who is the Draco family?” she asked quietly. “I’ve never heard of them.”Sebastian’s expression darkened almost immediately.“I have,” he said, thoughtfully. “They come from a very old lineage—older than most nations, older than most religions. They worship a dragon god. Among our kind, we call them dragon worshipers.”Snow’s brows furrowed sharply. “This doesn’t make any sense,” she said. “Why would dragon worshipers suddenly want Liberty City? This is a human city built and owned by Barry. Why challenge him?”Sebastian’s gaze slid back to Barry. “Because Master is the Big Man. The alpha.”Everyone turned to him.“In every realm,” Sebastian continued, “predators are drawn to territory ruled by a stronger predator. They challenge, they provoke and test his strength. Their goal is to dethrone the current alpha and claim his
The three mysterious letters
Veronica and Snow exchanged a look before quietly taking seats across from Barry’s desk. Snow was the first to speak, breaking the brief silence.“If you were given a portion of Sebastian’s power,” she said carefully, “then why aren't your powers manifesting?”Veronica nodded. “Yes. What are your abilities?”Barry leaned back slightly, steepling his fingers. “That’s the thing,” he said calmly. “Sebastian’s power doesn’t work like a switch you turn on. It’s dormant. Sealed inside me.”Snow frowned. “Dormant?”“Yes,” Barry said. “It only awakens when I’m faced with a serious threat that human capacity cannot manage. I'm not talking about business rivals or arrogant heirs. A real threat from the mystical realm.”The room went still.“There hasn’t been anything like that yet,” Barry continued. “Which means the powers sealed inside me has no reason to surface.”Veronica’s chest tightened. “Then why didn’t you tell me all these years?” she asked softly. “Why keep this a secret from me?”Ba
